Neo Beta humanoid butlerbot unveiled ahead of limited rollout to people's homes. Really!

So this company presents an industrial robot to come into your home?

"... But given its likely deployment on manufacturing lines in the factories of tomorrow, such things are fit for purpose. ...
According to the given specs on the product page, the Neo stands 5.41 ft (1.65 m) high – a little shorter than Eve – and weighs in at 66 lb (30 kg) while being able to carry 44 lb (20 kg) of household items, shopping or whatever. It can get up to 7.5 mph (12 km/h) at a run, but will spend much of its time walking at up to 2.5 mph (4 km/h). Per-charge operation time for its onboard batteries is between two and four hours. No doubt more details will follow as the project moves forward.

1X has revealed that the Neo humanoid is being developed for mass production at the company's own factory in Moss, Norway ..."

Neo Beta humanoid unveiled ahead of limited rollout to people's homes "Back in February, Norway's 1X showed off the progress it had made with its pick-and-place workplace humanoid, Eve. Now the OpenAI-backed company has released video footage of its latest prototype, a bipedal butlerbot named Neo Beta."

This robot looks a little creepy
